Australian team will wear this new Indigenous kit in the T20I series.

@Jay

A thoughtful gesture to honor the contributions of the indigenous culture in the country. The design beautifully depicts what the colors symbolize in the life and society of the aboriginal society.

The jersey is designed by Kirrae Whurrong woman Aunty Fiona Clarke & Butchulla and Gubbi Gubbi woman Courtney Hagen, the shirt continues the storytelling of the 1868 cricket team!

The stars in the jersey represented the ancestors of the aborigines and those that came before them. The green circles symbolize the strength between people and the continuation of their journey in life.

On the back, there is an emblem that states the thousands of years men have fought, educated and stood for the rights of the community. It has 11 signs which symbolize the 11 men around the campfire that represented the first indigenous cricket team of Australia in 1868. There is a band that shows the river and land and it acts as a connection with families to nature. The centre of the jersey has a big emblem that shows the past, present and future aboriginal cricketers.
